5:04 am
production continues to drop like a lead balloon and then the issue will we see a sanction snap back on iran which would make it harder for them to get their barrels to the market. >> venezuela a rolling disaster. how bad is it now from an oil perspective? >> they're losing month to month about 7 0,000, 80 thaush 080,00s per month. year end they could be down a million barrels year-on-year that's a big offset for shale. does the trump administration try to make more barrels come off the market or do we see new sanctions on venezuela >> if i have 100 cents and a lose a penny a day, sooner or later i'll have zero at what point will venezuela not really be an oil producer or an exporter >> more simply when is venezuela
5:05 am
a failed state they have a huge debt crisis the average venezuela has lost 20 pounds in the last year >> lack of food. >> it's a huge humanitarian disaster regardless of what happens in the middle east, venezuela has made opec's job easy does it make the u.s. shale boom less likely to drive prices lower? we are able to ramp up our production because we're making up for lost venezuela production a lot of venezuela oil which is thick, gooey was coming here any way. >> the interesting question will be if we start to -- if venezuela production rolls faster or we have a ban on bringing barrels into the united states who will make it up will it be saudi or iraq it is a heavier barrel that goes to gulf coast refineries >> overseas you talked about resanctioning iran, do you think that will happen >> president trump has been consistent saying he doesn't like the nuclear deal.
5:06 am
he has to make a decision by may 12th whether to extend sanctions on iran. if we don't extend sanction waivers, we're effectively out on the deal. what would be the smart money bet on that? if you want to take him at his word, he does flip-flop -- >> we have this tpp thing. i hate it. maybe we'll rejoin now japan is the problem >> john bolton has advocated regime change in iran, with mike pompeo coming in -- >> hard-liners >> it's become a hawkish cabinet on foreign policy. you have to bet we're done with the iranian nuclear deal >> a lot of focus on syria a huge humanitarian crisis we're separating the humanitarian aspect from the business side of things. not an oil and gas producing nation, is there a chance that trickles over?

this month core pc is set to jump up to 1.9% we're rolling off the introduction of unlimited data plans a year ago it sounds ridiculous but true. >> inflation number also go up because of your cell phone plan? >> everyone has a cell phone they before paying $40 a month for two gigabytes, now it's $40 for unlimited gigabytes. that gave us a sharp downward number on inflation, that's rolling off so we'll move up a bit. we think we're moving at a measured pace higher an that's enough to answer the third question, keeping the fed at a measured pace. >> and are they going to be? if the federal reserve is seeing cell phone plans as the cause for inflation, i can't imagine they'll accelerate their pace of rate hikes because of the t-mobile plan going up in price. >> inflation has been uilding. you have wage inflation starting to build could the fed go from three
5:17 am
hikes to four? yeah but that's not going to derail the market what will derail the market is if they go to five we have corporate earnings good. interest rates looking okay. federal reserve won't blow it. if you can get past all the other headlines, things will be all right. >> that's our call everyone has a plan until they get punched in the face. the key is not to lose your cool >> also the key is not to get punched in the face. appreciate it. good view there. a little optimism heading into the weekend. spring is finally here. still ahead on "worldwide exchange," trump talking, g ti. and he may be doing big about-face on that we'll tell you how and why from washington straight ahead. as we head to break, here's the national weather forecast from michelle grossman. >> good morning. we're looking at all types of weather. a strong storm bringing extreme

of whack market to you guys is the united states. you think we're misunderestimating what our fed will do. what do you think will happen with the fed here? >> when you look at the growth outlook in the united states, it's very, very robust it has had two extra shots from tax reform and from the corporate side from the budget side when you look at the fed, the risk is more, not less when you look at the ten-year treasuries at 2.8 2, they're a clear short at these levels. >> do you think the market is primed to drop or not as good as other markets? >> when you look at europe, very robust one area we would focus on is the high yield market. yields north of 6%, spreads
5:34 am
approaching 4%, there's no reason over the course of this year with that very strong economic back drop that the spread can't contract 50% to 75 basis points from current levels >> do you worry that increased interest rates maybe next year could drive a wave of defaults for u.s. high yield? high yield is often seen proxy for equities >> a few things to look at one is the default rate is 1.5% at the moment. again, when you look at what the impact of tax reform is, very, very strong in terms of the earnings profile companies have the ability to pay those interest charges the second thing to look at is when the big maturity wall is for high yield bonds you are out into the 2020s for that there's no imminent refinancing risks. there's no reason a lot of these
5:35 am
companies should default >> one thing you guys do is pro recess risk is zero, and only 5% crisis how does that stack up to previous years hard to go lower than zero >> recent years there's always been an economic bloc or economic in trouble. a few years ago it was europe. before that, china name any country in the world, any economic bloc at the moment and they're growing, not just growing but growing above trend rates of growth. that's testimony to that global growth outlook outside the united states you still have a super accommodative european central bank, and bank of japan pumping huge amounts of liquidity still into the financial system
5:36 am
>> our viewer here's could probably make more money in europe than in u.s. equities going forward, correct >> that's fair when you look at europe, it's take your pick it's three or five years behind the united states in terms of the earnings cycle in terms of the economic cycle and that's super accommodative, the ecb is just another shot for that trade >> emerging markets strong >> absolutely. looking at areas of the world that play on global growth, very much emerging markets. the absolute rate is a multiple of developed markets what we've seen this week with events in russia, you need good country and stock selection, but take a country like brazil, double digit yields that looks attractive in the world we're in >> nick with some good news, optimism heading into the
